Starkville is pretty terrible. War Memorial is the worst, Vandy is 3rd. Haven't been to Mizzou

Def Bryant Denny, it’s filled with deplorable Bama fans and they have that gawd awful led light display, don’t even have to see it in person to hate it.

War Memorial is the worst


2020 will mark the first time in 72 years that Arkansas doesn't play a game at War Memorial.

I've been to every SEC venue. Vandy, Vaught-Hemingway, Davis-Wade are on the low rung for sure. My two that I disliked the most were Williams-Brice and Neyland.

Don’t try dragging us down to your shitty level. Our stadium has been nice af since 2014. Anyone who says otherwise hasn’t been there, and those who have talk about what a pleasant surprise it was.

Tiger Stadium looks like the UN building in Iraq after it got blown up.

Bryant-Denny's field design was modeled after the Yale Bowl. The oval makes for improved sight lines. As opposed to the rectangle shape with sharp angles. The curves all point towards the field.

The curved look extends out to the bowl and upper-decks. Something you don't see everywhere.

The space on the sidelines give it a more hallowed ground feel, much like stepping onto the lawn of the White House. Also prevents the cramped-in look like in The Swamp or Tiger Stadium.

Hey guy. Starkville isn't pretty terrible. The redesigned stadium is a nice place to watch football.

Arkansas has a very nice stadium.

Hopefully someday we’ll play football in it again.

did have a clean feel too it. but it just seemed like way too much wasted space inside.


The biggest waste of space imaginable is the Texas AM trophy case. There isn’t anything to put in it. There is nothing more empty than an Aggie trophy case or awards galley.

I've been to Davis-Wade as recently as last year. Granted I haven't been to every area, especially the new end zone area.

It looks like it was built by 4 different people.


When Vaught was designed, the architects had four different ideas, so they showed Col. Reb a picture of the stadium with each style to a quarter intending for him to pick one of them.

Col. Reb looked at it and said, "Yes. Do it that way". And everyone was too afraid to tell him it was four different styles.

I hate our stadium. I wish a meteor would hit it and force the administration to start over...

Vanderbilt is BY FAR the worst. War Memorial in LIttle Rock would be worst, but I am not counting it.

I know it's not our "official" stadium, but this has to be the worst one where any SEC team still bothers to play. People are forgetting WMS if they're not including it in their top three. It's just treated and maintained so poorly. I'm sure a lot more of our fans wouldn't hold it in such contempt if there was some pride taken in it.

This. I’ve been to every one except UK they’re all awesome. Vandy is the worst.
